I'm planning to buy a mini lathe. Although I appreciate the points often
made about used Myfords etc, I'm *very* tight on space. I may also get a
similar sized mill - having read comments here and elsewhere about the
limitations of combined machines I'm going for two separate machines,
which is one reason they need to be small!
Anyway, the question is, are the Axminster Sieg C2A and the Sealey
SM3002 basically the same machine? The difference seems to be that the
Axminster has digital redaouts as standard and is a couple of hundred
pounds cheaper!
These are the machines in question:

Am I missing something?

If you have an un-heated workshop, and size is an issue, then do
consider the one from Hugh.
The digital ones can be an issue for temperatures below 10 deg.C..
